a sediment flux law that rises sharply as slope nears a critical gradient, producing planar steep hillslopes.

In geomorphology, nonlinear hillslope transport refers to a sediment flux law that rises sharply as slope nears a critical gradient, producing planar steep hillslopes. This meaning comes from Roering (1999) in Water Resources Research.[1]
